The QLD First aid in the workplace Code of Practice 2021 states, a company must ensure an adequate number of workers are trained to administer first aid at the workplace or workers have access to an adequate number of other people who have been trained to administer first aid.
The QLD First aid in the workplace Code of Practice 2021 states, “the following ratios are recommended:
| Course Title | Course Duration |
|---|---|
| HLTAID009 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation | 2 hours |
| HLTAID011 Provide First Aid | 4 hours |
Once deemed competent you will be issued a Statement of Attainment in:
Provide First Aid
HLTAID009 Provide cardiopulmonary resuscitation
HLTAID011 Provide First Aid
Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR)
HLTAID011 Provide First Aid
The QLD First aid in the workplace Code of Practice 2021 states, “Frequency of training for first aiders First aiders should attend training on a regular basis to refresh their first aid knowledge and skills and to confirm their competence to provide first aid. Refresher training in CPR should be carried out annually and first aid qualifications should be renewed every three years.”
The following are the industry standard recommendations for renewal time frames, however some industries, professions and organisations may differ:
HLTAID009 Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation: 12 months.
HLTAID011 Provide First Aid: Three years, with a 12 month CPR renewal.
HLTAID013 Provide First Aid in Remote or Isolated site: Three years, with a 12 month CPR renewal
Yes we offer weekend courses, contact us to discuss locations and dates.
Although our Head Office is in Kippa-Ring where we run courses frequently in our purpose built facilities, we train all over QLD and have a number of locally based regional trainers, contact us to discuss locations and dates.
If your course involves blended learning (online and in person), you will need to complete the online learning prior to your in person session. Certificates can not be issued until all requirements have been met. We do run face-to-face courses, call us for more information.
Yes, it does! HLTAID011 Provide First Aid covers both general first aid along with HLTAID009 Provide Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation; the CPR course.
There isn’t a minimum age limit, if your child is under 13, we would ‘prefer’ an adult to accompany them or if they are over 13 they are fine to complete the course by themselves – however, parents/guardians/caregivers will need to fill out a consent form for anyone under 18 – which will be sent to you at the time of booking.
A physical requirement of our accredited First Aid courses is the ability to perform CPR uninterrupted for two minutes and to roll an adult into the recovery position whilst on your knees – if this is not possible, we are able to provide a Certificate of Participation rather than a Statement of Attainment.
We would still recommend attending if you have restrictions as we believe these skills are very valuable and you will be able to learn about CPR and first aid and use it in your daily life.
Upskills QLD continues to follow the advice provided by Queensland Health, who is leading the State Government’s response to COVID-19.
We conduct regular touch-point cleaning on flat surfaces, and we’ve provided sanitation products for students to clean equipment before and after use.
We provide PPE including gloves and masks which students need to wear during practical activities.
Due to the proximity of students undertaking training and the sharing of equipment, you should not attend a booked course if you feel in any way unwell. We will happily reschedule you to another day.

Upskills people are great, they will get things done quickly and efficiently Jason is a great trainer, will make learning so much fun
Was as professional as it was enjoyable. No time wasted on unnecessary information. Just straight to the information that matters . We'll worth the time and money .
WOW I’m really impressed with UPSKILLS and their team, from day dot the professionalism came through. The ladies on the phone and admin were so helpful and professional my training went smoothly. JC 👏 you know your stuff and made it easy for us all because it doesn’t matter how long you have been a TC or TMI changes happen constantly. Thank you all for your assistance and professionalism and a special thanks to Brian Abrahson you’ve done the hard yards and work very hard to run a great ship. This is my fifth time getting my tickets and I believe it’s the best RTO I’ve been to.
The course was easy and very understanding, Especially with an instructor who'll Guide you through step by step,So that you don't feel like you're alone.If I myself can do it, so can you.You won't regret it at all.Upskill is the only way to go.I Recommend them.
I recently completed Upskills QLD’s Traffic Management Implementation, Traffic Control and Traffic Control – Practical Assessment Courses, and I couldn’t be more impressed. From start to finish, this training program was exceptionally well-structured, informative, and hands-on, everything I needed to feel confident and competent on site. Firstly, the course materials were comprehensive and up to date. The Traffic Management Implementation module broke down complex regulations into clear, digestible segments, and the Traffic Control course seamlessly built on that foundation, covering every aspect of setting up and managing safe, compliant work zones. Where the practical assessment sessions gave me real-world scenarios to apply what I’d learned. A standout highlight was our instructor, Jason Kassulke. Jason’s expertise in traffic management shone through in every lesson. He explained technical concepts like risk assessments, signage layouts, and communication protocols with clarity and enthusiasm, making sure no one was left behind. Jason fostered an open, supportive classroom environment, patiently answering questions and offering valuable tips from his own on-the-job experience. His real-life narrative and practical demonstrations not only kept the sessions engaging but also cemented my understanding of best practices. Plus, Upskills QLD goes the extra mile by helping you find a company to accrue the mandatory 20 hours of practical experience needed to obtain your traffic control license, so you can finish your training fully eligible to apply immediately. If you’re looking for a provider that combines expert instructors, hands-on learning, and excellent support, look no further than Upskills QLD. Special thanks to Jason Kassulke for making this an outstanding learning experience. I highly recommend these courses to anyone seeking top-tier traffic control training.
The trainer was good . Very easy to understand. A nice personality that made everyone comfortable. Explain the course in layman's term which made for easier understanding.
Very informative teaching by the teacher A+ . Onsite staff were very friendly and welcoming
The trainer, was great and funny...I enjoyed the class...free coffee was great, too
I recently completed the Traffic Management Implementation training with Brian at Upskills Qld, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Brian delivered the course with a perfect balance of professionalism, clarity, and practical know-how. His depth of knowledge and real-world experience really stood out, making the content not only easy to understand but also highly applicable on-site. He created a supportive learning environment where questions were encouraged, and every participant felt confident and well-prepared by the end of the training. Brian’s attention to detail and commitment to safety standards were exceptional, and he made sure every aspect of the course was relevant to the current industry requirements. If you’re looking to get certified or upskill in Traffic Management Implementation, I highly recommend Brian and the team at Upskills Qld. A top-notch trainer who genuinely cares about setting his students up for success.

Had a 2 day course (TMI & practical) with trainer Jason.K. He is full of energy and is very enthusiastic. He conducted the classes really well, and he ensures that everyone understood the content by explaining in a way his students could relate. He is also very funny with the jokes and hand gestures, which (personally I think) grabs the attention of his students. Please give him a raise!!!!
My partner and I did our full TMI course with Jason at upskills. The whole process was seamless and enjoyable. The facilities were all clean, tidy and practical. Jason's knowledge on the industry was very impressed and I look forward to doing business in the future and further training with Upsills QLD.
Did my White card, Traffic Control and TMI with trainer and assessor Fran alls I can say is the most precise and concise trainer I have ever been trained and assessed by. The course content and delivery was A1 and also fun along the way.

Have worked with Upskills QLD many times over the years and have always found their trainers and admin staff to be highly-educated and professional. Students have commented on the information delivered in the course to be like no other. Highly recommend.
I have been in touch with Upskills for a couple of months dealing with Michelle by phone she has a great phone manner, and with the number of calls she receives each it was nice of her to remember who I am. She explained the system clearly Michelle was great. The TC Training Course was run by Scott, he was also very friendly and welcoming, he was never perturbed by interrupting questions , he explained things clearly using many personal analogies. I could not recommend Upskills highly enough. Thanks Guys. ( Mmm is that the correct pronoun) Regards Keith
Scotty & Craig were awesome trainers and really knew their stuff! Couldn't recommend them more!
Fran was awesome very helpful and knowledgeable about the whole course awesome as thanks heaps Fran and crew 🙏

Hi if your eva wanting to be trained for traffic control or tmi then fran from upskills is the best trainer I have eva had and I would back her any time and I'm so thankful as she tells it like it is and straight forward but cares and takes the time to teach by what eva way helps u like if it's theory she will teach in that way but if it's prac then she will train like that so you have the best start in your new career.

I’d like to give a big shout out to my trainer Scotty at Kippa-Ring not only was he informative and knowledgeable but made the course fun. Very approachable and also open to different opinions, he was also very helpful to others having any type of difficulties through the 3 days I was there doing my TC, TMI and working in proximity modules. Thanks Scotty and look forward to seeing you again once I’ve got my 20 hours up to complete my TC training. 👍
Came in to do my renewal TC ticket. Jason was the trainer who was pumped full of knowledge ready to depart onto us! Was great to Learn of any changes to the industry as well as familiarise and get back to the basics! Jason and Upskills were amazing with the process and completing this ticket! Straight forward, direct and very approachable people! It was a little hike as I’m from south side of the city but worth the travel!
As a near 40yr old I was concerned about training into a new role, Fortunately our trainer Fran was very knowledgeable, explained things clearly, and she gave all students time and patience individually. I highly recommend Upskills.
I recently completed the White Card and Traffic Controller training with Upskills, and I couldn't be more impressed! The experience was great from start to finish. Jason, our trainer, made the sessions engaging and enjoyable. If you're looking to get your White Card or Traffic Controller qualification, I highly recommend Upskills. It's not just about getting a certificate – it's about gaining the confidence and skills to succeed in the industry. Not only does it provide a solid certification, but it also effectively helps in finding a 20-hour placement. Big thanks to Jason and the team for a fantastic learning experience!
